This proceedings volume contains 39 papers presented at the IUTAM
Sym- posium on Variations of Domains and Free Boundary Problems in
Solid Mechanics, held in Paris from April 22nd to 25th 1997, at the
Ecole des Mines and the Ecole Poly technique. This symposium
offered an opportunity for researchers from all engineering
disciplines and applied mathematics to review the state of the art
and to identify new trends and new features in the field.
Mechanical modelling, mathematical discussion and numerical
resolution have been the primary goals of the meeting. Principal
subjects of discussion concerned ground freezing, shape memory
alloys, crystal growth, phase change in solids, piezo-electricity,
wavelets, delamination, damage, fracture mechanics, polymerization,
adhesion, fric- tion, porous media, nucleation, plasticity, inverse
problems, and topological optimization. More than 80 scientists of
different nationalities participated in this sym- posium. Efforts
of many people made this symposium possible. We would like to thank
all the authors and participants for their contributions and the
members of the Scientific Committee for their patronage and
assistance in selecting papers. The effectiveness of the Organizing
Committee is ac- knowledged. We are pleased to thank all the
involved members of the two Laboratories : Laboratoire de Mecanique
des Solides and Laboratoire des Materiaux et des Structures du
Genie Civil, specially Valerie Fran

This book consists of two chapters. The first chapter deals with the thermomechanical macroscopic theory describing the transformation and deformation behavior of shape memory alloys. The second chapter deals with the extensive and fundamental review of the experimental works which include crystallography, transformations and mechanical characteristics in Ti-Ni, Cu-base and ferrous shape memory alloys.
Artificial ground freezing has been used for over a century to form
a temporary support and an impermeable barrier for underground
openings and other excavations. Nowadays it can be an efficient
barrier to prevent pollution spreading in permeable soils.
Depending on circumstances chilled brine or liquid nitrogen is
circulated through freeze tubes to form ice walls. This requires a
good understanding of the thermal, mechanical and hydraulic
properties of frozen and thawed soils. Topics: Heat and mass
transfer; Mechanical properties; Engineering design; Case
histories; Environmental soil freezing; etc.
